E

In the still water she lies down

D

Shaking in the press of sunlight

A

We rolled into Lexington

E

She shakes off the drop of daylight

E

Water beading up her chest

D

Bleeding down between her knees

A

Rivers in Kentucky flow

E

Between the bluegrass wavy seas

D E

But oh, Marjorie

D A E

Twists the knife once more inside of me

Breathless with anticipation

Baited breathers set their hooks

Tuck their heads beneath the high grass

And lie and wait beside the brooks

[the first two lines run together with the first two words said real rapidly]

For instance? pushing slowly through

Frustration leading back along

The alleys of a childhood

Will not release us willingly

But oh, Marjorie

Sticks the knife in while I heard the sea

[solo]

F#m B? [repeat]

Dust me off and shut me down

And dream of where I haven't been

Close the door inside my heart

Stuck in the south Atlantic wind

I have hollow eyes

Haunting only to myself

Even so, I can't stop calling

This great big hollows in my self

I took the train form California

To the far side of the continent

Woke up in Kentucky

Where a wedding was about to end

I looked up at Anna

She turned back to look at me

It's best to kill the ones that matter

Render blind the ones who see

But oh, Marjorie

Takes the blade and walks away from me

Oh, Marjorie

Love like blood is pouring out of me

Oh, Marjorie

My heart won't stop bleeding over me baby

[solo over F#m and B?]

Oh, I can't shut it in

It's got far too many doors to block the wind

Oh, I can't shut it in

It's got far too many doors to block the wind
